Verification
  • The Top Ten Things to Remember When Reviewing
    Educators PDPs
  • for Plan Verification

2
Introduction
  • Thank you for agreeing to serve as a
    Professional Development Plan (PDP) team
    reviewer.
  • This Power Point is provided to assist you as
    you review Educators PDPs for plan verification.
  • Your participation in the DPI PDP team training
    and on educators teams is appreciated as you
    help to grow the profession under PI 34
    Wisconsins Quality Educator Initiative.

10 The Completed PDP Documenting an
Educators Professional Journey
  • The PDP
  • Focuses on the educator as a learner
  • Demonstrates the educators learning through data
    driven results gained about the educator AND
    results with students
  • Tells the story of an educators professional
    learning from the beginning to the end of the 3-5
    year plan
  • Reveals the educators ability to reflect on the
    implementation of the PDP, the ability to
    generate and analyze data, and the ability to
    provide evidence of verifiable professional
    growth and an impact on student learning.

9 Verification Pre-check
  • Be sure you are the appropriate person to be
    reviewing the plan in front of you. An Initial
    Educators PDP team is comprised of the
    following trained members a peer (from the same
    category- teacher, administrator, or pupil
    services), an administrator and a representative
    from higher education. A Professional Educators
    PDP team is comprised of three peers (from the
    same category-teacher, administrator, or pupil
    services).
  • Check the date the license is due to be renewed.
    Remember, an Educators plan may be three, four,
    or five years in duration.
  • Timelines for three, four, and five year plans
    may be found at http//dpi.wi.gov/tepdl/iess.html
  • It is recommended that a completed plan be
    submitted to the PDP team members between January
    and March of the final year of the plan.
    Reviewers need to return the plan with the
    verification signature form to the Initial
    Educator within 60 days of receipt of the plan.

8 Utilize DPI Resources
  • Initial Educator Toolkit (http//tepdl.dpi.wi.gov/
    files/tepdl/pdf/pdpinitialeducatortoolkit.pdf )
  • Checklists, plan verification signature forms,
    timelines, component review forms
    (http//tepdl.dpi.wi.gov/pdp/-information-for-pdp-
    team-members )
  • PI 34 FAQ (http//dpi.wi.gov/tepdl/doc/pi34faqs.do
    c)
  • PI 34 Synopsis/Overview
  • (http//tepdl.dpi.wi.gov/files/tepdl/pi34synopsis
    .ppt)

7 The Educator Must Include the Signed Goal
Approval Signature Form(s) with his/her Completed
Plan
  • A 2/3 majority was required for goal approval
    Make sure that the form (or forms) is included
    with the plan and that two of the three team
    members approved the goal.
  • The PDP team that reviewed and approved the goal
    can be the same team, but may not be the same
    team that ultimately reviews and verifies the
    completed plan.
  • At this stage, your role is not to approve the
    goal, but rather to review whether the activities
    completed and the evidence submitted demonstrate
    the impact of the educators professional growth
    on student learning.

6 As You Read the Plan, Review the Questions
Following Each Section to Assure All Components
are Included
  • Example Evidence of Professional Growth and
  • Student Learning
  • Review Checklist for Evidence of Completion

Did the educator provide 3 to 5 pieces of
artifacts and a description of each? Does
the evidence verify professional growth?
Does the evidence verify the impact of
professional growth on student learning?
Did the educator include annual reviews for each
year of the plan except the first and
final? Did the educator include his/her
approved and signed Goal Approval Form?
8
5 The Annual Review A Narrative Summary of
Progress Made in Meeting the Goal
  • The Annual Review must include
  • Completion dates for objectives and activities
    completed during the year
  • Reflection on professional growth
  • Reflection on the impact of professional growth
    on student learning and
  • A description of any substantial revisions made
    in the goal, objectives, or activities.

9
4 Utilize the Component Review Form and
Provide Guidance When an Initial Educators PDP
Does not Meet the Necessary Criteria
  • For every NO on the Component Review Form, you
    must provide information as to what the educator
    must do for the component to receive a YES.
  • The completed PDP should answer the following
    questions
  • What new knowledge, skills, beliefs, or attitudes
    did the educator acquire?
  • How did this acquisition impact professional
    practice?
  • How did this acquisition impact student learning?
  • What documentation shows evidence of the
    educators growth and the impact on student
    learning

10
3 Tips for Verification
  • There must be evidence to verify.
  • Evidence must be what the educator states it is
    (Cross reference the pieces of evidence with the
    accompanying narrative.)
  • Evidence included must demonstrate professional
    growth.
  • Evidence included must demonstrate an impact on
    student learning.
  • Reflection is the authors interpretation of the
    data.

11
2 Check Your Biases at the Door
  • You are not a teacher, grading a student paper.
  • You are not judging the merit of the document in
    front of you. You are judging whether the
    activities completed demonstrate professional
    growth and student learning.
  • You are a colleague, helping your peers as they
    endeavor to demonstrate professional growth and
    an impact on student learning.
  • You are a professional and you bring unique
    experiences and expertise to the process.

12
1 PDP Ethics
  • Service as a PDP team member is an important
    responsibility in maintaining a high quality
    educator licensing system and a high quality
    force of educators in the state of Wisconsin.
  • By participating on a PDP team, you agree to
    fulfill all the requirements for approving and/or
    verifying another educators plan of action.
  • Your involvement ultimately influences the
    learning and achievement of students in Wisconsin
    schools.
  • Your service to the profession is deeply
    appreciated.
